Myriad Spirits Immortal Clan

Inside a private room at the Ye Family Restaurant, the two sat facing each other, the tea on the table untouched.

Steam rose from the teapot, but the two porcelain cups remained bare and empty, appearing exceptionally clear.

Ye Jingcheng was not in the mood for elegance, and neither was Chu Yanqing.

If their meeting were seen by someone with ulterior motives, it would be quite unusual.

To be honest, Ye Jingcheng was taking a risk even coming to see Chu Yanqing.

"I'm here just to tell you that your Ye family will be the next target. According to news my aunt passed on before her death, a Nascent Soul True Lord used a magical artifact to deduce the location of the Eight Desolations Sect's遗宝, and it's in Taihang County!"

Seeing Ye Jingcheng's wariness, Chu Yanqing appeared somewhat anxious and directly revealed everything.

She felt disappointed in her family, grief for her aunt, and hatred for the Jin family.

But family struggles and the world of cultivation had always been a matter of the strong preying on the weak.

She could only hate that she wasn't a Golden Core cultivator.

"I'm going to Zhao State. This is the address!" Chu Yanqing took out a jade slip and placed it on the table in front of Ye Jingcheng.

After speaking, she put on the hood of her spirit-isolating robe, concealing her features once more.

She quietly left the restaurant.

Only Ye Jingcheng remained there, looking at the jade slip with a complex expression.

Chu Yanqing had come merely to remind him.

This somewhat exceeded his understanding of her.

Chu Yanqing in the Chu family was somewhat similar to his position in the Ye family.

Both were core members and future heads of their families. Chu Yanqing's current cultivation was clearly in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment. Considering her age, she was definitely a dazzling genius.

Ye Jingcheng estimated that she had at least two spiritual roots, or perhaps even a single spiritual root.

However, judging from her being a炼器师, water and fire attributes were the most likely.

Moreover, Chu Yanqing probably knew the Water Forging method.

His Five-Colored Daoist Robe was made by Chu Yanqing.

Ye Jingcheng began to examine the jade slip. There were no superfluous descriptions within, only an escape route from Yan State, leading to Xiangnan Mountain Market in Zhao State.

Ye Jingcheng shook his head and put away the jade slip.

He guessed that this was one of the Chu family's escape routes, which would naturally be useful to the Ye family, but not now. Even if the Ye family could escape, they couldn't escape Yan State.

Under the Taiyi Sect's jurisdiction, the Taiyi Sect might not take action after probing and finding that the Ye family didn't have any treasures.

But the major sects of other countries wouldn't be so lenient.

Moreover, they would be going secretly. At that time, the other party might directly use soul-searching to force information from them.

Although the Ye family's family jade book formation was extremely powerful, the consequence of soul-searching was death by explosion.

But there were always secret methods to破解.

Therefore, Ye Jingcheng frowned at the information Chu Yanqing had conveyed.

If he wasn't mistaken, what the Nascent Soul cultivator had deduced was the Tower of Beast Taming.

Only such an extraordinary treasure could be coveted by a Nascent Soul True Lord.

So he quickly left the restaurant. He had to convey this news to Ye Haicheng as soon as possible.

To Ye Jingcheng's surprise, the炼尸 in front of the restaurant not only didn't frighten the customers,

but actually increased the number of customers. Many casual cultivators who usually didn't come were now visiting.

Although they only ordered a cup of spirit tea, a portion of spirit fish膳, or a portion of Maolin boiled pork膳,

their support for the Ye family was indeed considerable.

This also represented that those casual cultivators were complaining about the influx of so many邪修 and 魔修.

At the same time, they were probably frightened and didn't dare to leave the market. But for most cultivators, they had to venture into the Taihang Mountains.

Otherwise, cultivation required spirit stones, living in the market required spirit stones, and with the dream of reaching Foundation Establishment in their hearts, they naturally hoped that the Ye family could initiate a counterattack against the邪修, driving the邪修 and 魔修 out of Taihang Market once again.

Ye Jingcheng symbolically cupped his fist in the direction of the restaurant, but the expression on his face remained unpleasant.

He seemed to glare at everyone he saw.

Most cultivators understood. After all, he had only been the family head for a few years, and this had happened.

Anyone in his position would probably find it difficult to bear.

They even felt that the Ye family already had elders who wanted to impeach Ye Jingcheng.

In major cultivation families, if the elders reached a consensus, they could depose the family head.

Of course, Ye Jingcheng didn't know their rich inner thoughts at this moment.

He went to the spirit beast shop again, met Ye Haicheng, and told him everything he had seen and heard.

Ye Haicheng couldn't help but take a few more glances at Ye Jingcheng.

Ye Jingcheng felt a little apprehensive, as if he suspected that there was something between him and Chu Yanqing.

But Ye Jingcheng was somewhat wronged. He was still somewhat wary of Chu Yanqing.

Then Ye Haicheng finally spoke:

"It's normal to have this kind of news, but don't worry. The specific location of the Tower of Beast Taming won't be deduced. The family's ancestor left records. As for whether there are treasures in Taihang County, it doesn't matter. What's important now is whether the Taiyi Sect has a Nascent Soul cultivator!" Ye Haicheng didn't care about Chu Yanqing's news.

Perhaps Ye Haicheng had also learned of it.

But as Ye Haicheng said, these weren't important.

What was important was whether the Taiyi Sect could withstand it, and whether the Ye family could successfully incite a beast tide.

If the beast tide caused most of Taihang County to fall, then the news of a secret treasure would naturally become nonsense.

As for whether the Tower of Beast Taming could be deduced and found, Ye Jingcheng was relieved after thinking about it.

If it could really be deduced, the Ye family would have been exposed long ago.

The Tower of Beast Taming couldn't have remained until now.

For a moment, Ye Jingcheng was curious about what rank the Tower of Beast Taming was.

"Go urge them again tomorrow morning!" Ye Haicheng spoke again and began to close his eyes.

After urging them one more time, it would be time for the Ye family to set off.

Because the Ye family had experienced the scourge of evil cultivators, they were now vigorously creating traces of evil cultivators wreaking havoc and relocating all the mortals.

Although the Ye family had many mortals, the inner court cultivators of the Ye family dispersed in advance to every mortal town, and then the Turtle Ancestor went to collect these mortals.

Finally, the evil cultivators wreaked havoc, destroying the towns and creating pools of blood.

Then, the early-stage Qi Refining members of the Ye family discovered it.

The whole process was almost launched simultaneously.

The scapegoat was excellent, the evil cultivators of the Heavenly Corpse Sect.

Moreover, the inaction of Taihang Market and the resistance of the Ye family aroused the revengeful psychology of the evil cultivators.

All the explanations were logical.

...

Time quickly arrived at the next day, early in the morning, and the dawn emerged slightly from the east.

Seemingly as a result of the heavy rain, the dawn was exceptionally bright and exceptionally gentle.

Rarely, a thick fog rose around Taihang Market.

The dawn pierced through the fog, forming a beautiful and hazy landscape painting.

Ye Jingcheng went to Jiang Jinghe's room again to urge him.

The latter finally handed over a large list.

But they were all old cultivators, with few in the Foundation Establishment stage. Most of them were in the late stage of Qi Refining. This demon hunting team was almost a joke when dealing with魔修 with third-order blood修.

It was like a symbolic explanation.

Ye Jingcheng was naturally furious. After angrily scolding him a few times, he stormed off.

After Ye Jingcheng left, Jiang Jinghe became somewhat puzzled.

Having been in Taihang Market for so many years, he naturally couldn't be completely oblivious.

The fact that Ye Haicheng wasn't the one urging him, but Ye Jingcheng, was highly unusual.

After all, being urged by a Zifu cultivator and a Zhuji cultivator is vastly different.

If a Zhuji cultivator urged him, he could naturally handle it as usual; but if a Zifu cultivator urged him, he couldn't afford to be lax and had to take significant measures, and he couldn't just go through the motions.

Of course, despite his hesitation, he had no intention of exposing the situation; on the contrary, he actively communicated with the Xu, Jin, Kong, and Chu families.

It seemed he was truly going to mobilize the entire Taihang Prefecture to drive out the evil cultivators.

However, the result was the same as when he perfunctorily dealt with Ye Jingcheng; the others were equally evasive.

Naturally, Jiang Jinghe was happy to see this.

He didn't want to offend any of the families in Taihang Prefecture.

After all, he was the market master stationed in Taihang Market by the sect, and concurrently served as the prefect; no matter what, he wouldn't be in trouble.

There was no need for him to join in the commotion.

He just needed to do his job superficially, slowly collect his salary, and prepare the spiritual herbs for breaking through to Zifu, so he could prepare for his breakthrough.

For cultivators, wealth and power are not the most important; the most important thing is their own cultivation level.

…

Meanwhile, as soon as Ye Jingcheng returned to the spirit beast shop, he saw the Ye family's spirit boat descending from the sky again, revealing several anxious figures.

They slowly emerged from the mist, each looking mournful.

"Patriarch, disaster has struck! A large portion of the family's mortals have been blood-sacrificed!"

"A large number of evil cultivators are appearing!" As the Ye family members spoke.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng's expressions changed, and they immediately led some of the Ye family's late-stage Qi Refining cultivators towards Lingyun Peak.

In the end, only Ye Xinghe was left behind.

"Uncle, go find Market Master Jiang and clearly explain the urgency of the situation to him. The family has reached a critical moment of life and death; the evil cultivators are very likely to attack Lingyun Peak!" Ye Jingcheng practically shouted.

Then, the spirit boat sped away from Taihang Market.

…

Lingyun Peak, all the Ye family members were on high alert. As soon as Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng arrived at Lingyun Peak, they flew together towards Lingyun Lake high in the sky.

Seeing that the teleportation array was gone, they all breathed a sigh of relief.

The Ye family's mortal relocation plan had been completed, and the teleportation array was once again hidden within Turtle Ancestor's blessed land.

This time, the Ye family had outrun time.

The remaining mortals were all located in the Buqingshan area of the Li family.

And the mortals near the Ye family's Lingyun Peak.

These mortals also began to migrate towards Buqingshan.

If there were no accidents, those cultivators from the Taiyi Sect and Taihang Market would see the Ye family's mortals migrating in fear.

Ye Jingcheng and Ye Haicheng also re-examined the ravaged towns.

Finally, they looked at Ye Xingqun:

"Uncle Xingqun, burn all the towns!" Ye Jingcheng said.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingqun hesitated; this was the evidence he had deliberately left behind.

"That evidence is too deliberate; no one will believe it," Ye Xingqun nodded upon hearing this and began to burn one town after another.

After all, after the blood corpses ran rampant, corpse poison remained; cultivators were not afraid, but mortals would suffer.

Only by burning the towns could such chaos be prevented.

After burning everything, Ye Jingcheng also used the shadow-recording mirror to observe.

When he saw that he could only faintly see the blood cultivator and spirit shadow escaping, he completely relaxed.

"Did anything go wrong at Yulong Valley?" Ye Jingcheng asked again.

"Patriarch, nothing went wrong. The three great demon kings appeared together. It's impossible for anyone investigating this time to be a Zhenren, and there might not even be many Zifu Shangren!"

"Also, low-level demon beasts have begun to appear in the areas near the Taihang Mountains belonging to the Ye family; this is a sign of a beast tide!" Ye Xingqun said.

A beast tide naturally couldn't happen suddenly; the Ye family couldn't create a scene like the one with the Mo family again.

But with the Earth Dragon Demon King's last chance to act, all the problems were easily solved.

The Earth Dragon Demon King launched the beast tide, the Three-Eyed Demon King sought revenge, the Cloud Lion Demon King shared the same hatred, and it wouldn't be difficult to suddenly add a Silver Moon Demon King.

After all, the demon race didn't gain the upper hand in the last confrontation.

Half a day later, as expected, Taihao Shangren and Qianhe Shangren arrived. With these two Shangren coming together, the Ye family naturally provided all kinds of evidence and information.

This information didn't need to be fabricated; they just had to mention the identities that the Corpse Daoist had used before.

After investigating, Taihao Shangren and Qianhe Shangren also looked grim.

But the result was inconclusive.

They set up camp in the Ye family.

That day, Ye Jingcheng began to announce the mass production of Fireball Talismans and various detoxifying elixirs.

The former was to deal with spirit corpses, and the latter was to detoxify corpse poison.

Ye Jingcheng entered the alchemy room, and Ye Xingliu took over the reception.

…

That night, the moon was bright and the stars were few, and the bright moonlight shone on the mountains near Lingyun Peak.

A cultivator wearing a five-colored robe and carrying a spirit beast pouch around his waist quietly left in the night.

He went straight into the Taihang Mountains.

This cultivator was Ye Jingcheng, but at this time, he was isolated by the spirit-isolating robe and the five-colored robe, and even Taihao Shangren couldn't recognize him.

In addition, he also took the Bone Melting Pill; as long as he didn't summon his signature spirit beast, he wouldn't be exposed.

Following the spiritual map that had been recorded in his mind several times, he went directly into the depths of the Taihang Mountains.

This time, his speed was unparalleled.

He bypassed Yulong Valley and headed towards another mountain entrance.

It was more remote, and spiritual herb resources were very scarce; it was also the place where Ye Jingcheng had first entered the mountains.

For a long distance, there were no high-level demon beasts; most of the cultivators of the Ye family in Lingyun Peak had previously been active here.

Of course, this also included the former Taihang Six Families.

Ye Jingcheng chose this place for insurance.

After flying for a while, Ye Jingcheng directly sacrificed the Corpse Daoist's second-order top-grade spirit boat, the Black Coffin White Bone Boat.

To be honest, Ye Jingcheng didn't like this spirit boat from the bottom of his heart; only the Heavenly Corpse Sect loved this spirit boat.

But this time, for the mission, Ye Jingcheng naturally agreed.

After flying recklessly through a large buffer zone for most of the night, finally, in front of Ye Jingcheng, a vast, shimmering lake appeared in the distance.

This lake was precisely Moon Gazing Lake.
